LEXINGTON, Va. -- Eight members of the record-setting Washington
and Lee women's soccer team earned spots on the All-Old Dominion
Athletic Conference (ODAC) team which was announced Wednesday
morning. Additionally, Head Coach Neil Cunningham was honored as
the ODAC Coach of the Year, while freshman midfielder Gina Von
Sternberg (Houston, Texas/Episcopal) was selected as the Rookie of
the Year.

In the defensive backfield, Hayde and Zagol combined to hold the
Generals' opponents to an average of 0.65 goals per game. A year
ago, Hayde was a First Team selection, while Zagol garnered
Honorable Mention honors. In net, Barker recorded 60 saves for a
.845 save percentage while allowing a 0.62 GAA and recording six
shutouts.

In his second season as head coach of the women's program,
Cunningham led the Generals (17-2-3) to a school-record number of
wins, a 20-game unbeaten streak, their first ODAC Championship and
first berth in the NCAA Tournament.
